Stat's Review (Update)

As you may or may not know, in order to keep my radio going, I need to get a certain amount of listening hours. After a specific time period, the stats are reviewed by the hosting site and then that determines whether the radio continues. 
Seven days ago, when I did the last stats review, I had achieved 70 listening hours average per day (over 30 day average). In these seven days, I have beaten my record amount of listening hours three times! Yesterday saw the highest amount of listening hours Just Another Radio had ever had - 164 hours.
Most recent stats :D 
The next Stats Review post will be at the end of the month, so no more boring stuff 'till then.

Updated Blog

I have added the 'Top 10 Chart Show's' tab to give you links that have direct access to previous charts and chart news. You can also click on the 'Chart Comparison' links to find the chart comparison article.

The 'Review's' tab has been removed as it wasn't being used. However, it may return in the form of a voting poll.

The 'About Us' section has been updated with more information about the campaigns Just Another Radio does as well as a brief description of Just Another Radio.

The updated Facebook page and twitter page includes the current logo and updated links and information. Also, hopefully some 'Follow Us' and 'Like Us' buttons will appear on the blog in the next few days.

The 'Copyright's' page has also been updated, with more detail. UPDATE: The tab has been removed and the information now can be found at the bottom of the website.

Top 10 - Indie Week!

Next week's Top 10 will be 100% Indie for one week only and then the chart show will return back to normal the next week! Tune in at 12 noon and 7pm on Sunday to hear what are our Top 10 Indie songs!

Top 10 Chart Comparison (29th & 5th)


A new song called 'Tongue Tied' by 'Grouplove' has taken this weeks number 1 spot, knocking 'Jerk it Out' down to number 5. After 5 weeks of holding on strong, 'Shake it Out' has disappeared off the charts, however Florence + The Machine re-enters the chart at number 2 with 'No Light, No Light'. At number 3 is 'Civilization' by 'Justice' (the people who made the 'D.A.N.C.E' song).  They got this song partially because how strange/awesome the music video is (see below). Another new entry, includes the not-so-new 'Five Years Time' by Noah and The Whale. The songs that have disappeared from last week's charts include 'Dakota', 'Rose', 'Fast Cars' and 'Shake it Out'. 

I hope you enjoyed this week's charts and please tune in next week at the same time (12 noon or 7pm GMT) for a special Top 10 show to be revealed later!

SUDDYN - Up-and-Coming Artist

SUDDYN are a recent up-and-coming band to be added to Just Another Radio. As a personal opinion, their songs are very well-written - they are also extremely catchy with great rhythms!They will be added to the 'Up-and-Coming' tab above, along with Kevin M Thomas.


SUDDYN'S Biography
Developing their piano-driven electro-rock sound into what it is today, SUDDYN stemmed from humble beginnings in Montauk, New York, growing into the international band they have become. Formed by brothers Alan (vocals, piano, synths) and Jarrett (guitar, vocals, bass) Steil, the band honed its music while touring through Ireland. Using their allure to crack the Irish music scene, the group returned to New York with 3 Top 30 hits, a devoted following, and a string of equally impressive hangovers. Blessed with panty-dropping good looks, they bring energy and presence to their shows unmatched since Genghis Khan conquered Mongolia. Incorporating a savvy knowledge of production values, SUDDYN followed their debut EP Dark Lights, with Before the City, produced by Grammy Award-winner David Kahne (Paul McCartney, Sublime). 


In 2011, trading winter jackets and pasty skin for sunglasses and tans, SUDDYN brought the show to the West Coast. Playing an intensive schedule in LA-area bars and clubs, they garnered heavy attention from KROQ and MTV. 


Continuing with their budding success they have shared the stage over the past year with the likes of Vampire Weekend; Matt and Kim; We Are Scientists and Bright Eyes. Their new music video for “Nothing Lasts Forever" is really gathering steam as well having been featured on Much Music's The Wedge, Music Choice, MTV.com, Yahoo Music and it was AOL’s music video of the day. 





Thanks to SUDDYN for providing the images and biography.

Kevin M. Thomas - Up-and-Coming Artist


KEVIN M. THOMAS
